I am running a javafx based application from jenkins. My Jenkins version is 2.73.1 and java application is compiled with java 8 and i am running the jar with java8 as well. I am having this exception and this actually starts here without giving any detail. 

java.lang.NullPointerException
    at sun.awt.shell.Win32ShellFolder2.access$200(Unknown Source)
    at sun.awt.shell.Win32ShellFolder2$1.call(Unknown Source)
    at sun.awt.shell.Win32ShellFolder2$1.call(Unknown Source)
    at java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source)
    at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(Unknown Source)
    at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(Unknown Source)
    at sun.awt.shell.Win32ShellFolderManager2$ComInvoker$3.run(Unknown Source)
    at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)

I have tried a lot of solutions, changing jenkins versions, logon to jenkins as administrator but nothing work.

It is not the duplicate of 'NPE in Win32ShellFolder2.access when creating new JFileChooser as Local System Account in Windows 7' as it is working perfectly fine in my pc from command prompt.

Any hint or help is appreciated.

Thanks.

  • I have actually tried the solutions provided here. Moreover the same javafx application gets successfully executed when run from command prompt in my pc. – user3768904 Nov 04 '17 at 09:51
  • Is Jenkins running with JDK 1.7+? Seems to be a problem that got fixed with the Java 1.7 release! – N00b Pr0grammer Nov 04 '17 at 14:05
  • my class path variable for java (JAVA_HOME) is pointing toward 1.7 whereas i am running this javafx app with 1.8 because this app builts with jdk 1.8 and jenkins is also running with jdk 1.8 – user3768904 Nov 06 '17 at 09:52
